Scenic Kentucky: Irvington Coaling Tower

2019-08-27 - Breckinridge Co., KY - Photo by Tiffany Kessler
Just like most of Kentucky's 120 counties, the history of Breckinridge is captivating. The county was named for John Breckinridge (1760-1806), a Kentucky Attorney General, state legislator, United States Senator, and United States Attorney General. Divided from vast Virginia at that time, it was only the 38th Kentucky county in order of formation. Pictured is an old coaling tower.

Scenic Kentucky: Irvington Grain Silos

Traveling through Kentucky on a rain-soaked day with phenomenal cloud coverage, we found ourselves in Irvington, a city in Breckinridge County. The train tracks were stunning and make me forever sad that Adair was never able to obtain the type of transport. Near the CSX tracks sits a pair of old grain silos.

UFO: Unidentified Floating Object

I spotted what I at first thought were small crawdads swimming along the bottom of shallow pools alongside the Ohio River at the Falls of the Ohio State Park, but when I checked my camera later, I did not recognize the tiny creatures in the photos. Any ID would be appreicated. --Pen
